General CommentTrudat DCFCAlex. I wouldn't say this is their BEST album, but it's definitely not as bad as everyone's saying it is. oAnd the simplicity f the lyrics has a lot to do with the overall mood of the album. About the late night after hours scene and every thing. I think the album leaflet photography pretty much explains it.

General CommentI hope everyone gets that 'her good looks could'a sailed a ship...' is a reference to Helen of Troy ('the face that launched a thousand ships'). Funny what people are saying about the lyrics, stuff like this seems rather mature or sophisticated to me. I think the new album is their best since Take Offs And Landings personally.

General Commenti think this song is about someone, or someones, who kinda live a dangerous life, for money like pornstars, or prostitutes, or theifs. and how their whole life is kinda like a "close call" like everything they do practicially kills them, if not actually then like metephorically. like some people just have crap lifes to start with and never really do anything of substance, or do things that just dont make them feel good about themselfs, because they are always just getting by, with money, or even living situation. i'm probably reading way too much into this

I know how you feel. I bought the execution of all things when it came out, and I have loved RK ever since. This album is definately more mainstream. I miss the old folky and quirky Rilo Kiley. It's like someone at Warner Bros. told them "Here's how you make a top 40 album . . . " and they did it. But it is good. And Jenny's insanely talented way of writing is shown through even on this album. With the exeption of Silver Lining, i was as well disappointed. But i guess you just have to appreciate it for what it is. I still love Rilo Kiley forever!!!
